Description
Farha B

Synopsis:  In 2018, feeling burnt-out and untethered from her sense of self, Farha cycled 15,000km from Mile End to Benin. She took to the road to rediscover the ancestral knowledge within. She sought a sense of belonging and freedom through nature. In this evening of storytelling, Farha invites you in, to share a cup of chaa and a story, and to become part of her journey.

About the Artists:  Farha is a creative thinker, community organiser, social justice activist and storyteller. She breathes life into wild dreams! She loves to slow-travel. She explores different ways of (un)learning, (re)centring ancestral knowledge. This is through daily practice and connections with land. Farha grew up in both 1990s Birmingham and 1960s Kashmir. She has mastered the art of time travel.

Shavena is a singer and musician from London. She trained in Carnatic music and spent some time as a jazz singer. Drawing from these and other influences she creates vibrant, soulful compositions.
